I went thru the "old" school USAF UPT, lots of acro, lots of under the hood acro, and lots of recoveries; then fighter RTU same torture by ex-Vietnam types who loved handing the plane back, under the "tent", out of speed, straight up to see how you would handle it. Now, even in the AF, the T-1 program has none of that. Funny, when I last went to NTPS and did upset training, I all came back like riding a bicycle despite years of not doing it.
The lesson: this training needs o be "imprinted" early on and reinforced to the point of reaction not deep thinking.
